    About this audiobook

    In a torrential downpour, Phil, Jamie and Martin—three teenage boys—encounter a strange and enigmatic man covered in horrible scars who will change their lives, their destinies and the very fate of their souls forever. When their encounter mistakenly leads to murder, they realize this eerie stranger may not have been a man at all, but something much more…

    Thirty years later the boys—now men—lead tormented lives filled with horrifying memories of the scarred man and what they did all those years ago in the rain. Phil is a struggling writer, divorced, with a daughter and a mounting drinking problem. Jamie is a defrocked priest with depraved secrets and horrible addictions, and Martin, a madman who thinks himself a god, has vanished into a desolate desert region of Mexico and established a feared and violent blood cult.

    When Martin’s dying mother hires Phil to find her son and bring him home, Phil embarks on a perilous journey that will take him from the seedy streets of Tijuana, to a dangerous and allegedly haunted stretch of desert Mexican road known as The Corridor of Demons. At the end of the road, in an old and previously abandoned church, Martin and his followers wait in the Hell-on-Earth they’ve created deep in the desert.

    There will be only one chance for redemption, one chance for salvation, and one chance to stop the rise of an antichrist’s bloody quest for demonic power.

    From the void, came chaos. These are its children.

      Do you believe in the Devil? In God? Angels? Or, like me do you believe that YOU are your own god? Well let me tell you what....after you read Gifunes' "Children of Chaos" you WILL believe in Something! Just read or listen (which I prefer!) to it! You will never forget this tale of what is ahead of us in LIFE!
      Highly Recommended! 5 ?????

      This book had strangely appeared on my 'to rean Next' on my Scribd Audio list once I finished 'Depraved'. I looked at it and read the description and thought what the hell. 1 word: Wow!
      Greg Gifune writes a tale that will make you think, it will turn your stomach, and it might even make you get a tear in your eye.....i did.

      What starts out for 3 young teenaged boys one horribly rainy night after going to their local carnival, they meet a strange man with horrifying burn scars all over his body. Scars that 'move!'. It ends up in them murdering this strange man with a warning that he gives them that actually scares into them doing what they did. Now what? Did anyone see? Did anyone know this man? who knows, what they do know is, they have to hide this mans dead body.....and the strange long sword like type weapon with a tale all it's own.

      Phil, Martin and Jamie were always the best of friends and they were so different that it made you wonder why they were as close as they were? 30 years later.
      Phil is divorced and an alcoholic, and struggling to become a published writer, he also has a teenaged daughter that he adores more than anything in life.
      Jamie, a Priest that has been knocked down off his pulpit due to addiction and terrible secrets of his own.
      Martin....well let's say Martin is missing. All on his own accord because of madness and the beilief that he is the Next Messiah, the God who can and will save the humanity of the world, and he has escaped to the 'Chorridor of Demons' in Mexico. When Martin's dying mother contacts Phil, and offers him a huge amount of cash to him if he can find her son and bring him home to say goodbye to her once more before she dies of an illness, Phil accepts. But what Phil does not know is that this is a journey that has been planned for him over 30 years ago. It is and will be a journey that will terrify you, disgust you, invade your sleeping hours and or hours of whenever you are alone. But! Let me tell you, this journey will show you things that you will NEVER be able to 'UnSee' or ever forget. If you are a staunch believer in your beliefs then this horror novel might disturb you in complete different ways that it did me, but I am so glad i read this!! I will highly recommend this terrifying, and very graphic and disturbing world of what may really be out there for us in the end. I LOVED this. I cannot wait to find another book of his to listen to. Read 'Children of Chaos'.

      Eh...boring and lacking on all fronts. After the first part with the kids, you are so hopeful the action would continue. We'll it doesn't. The author was on rambling tears through out the story. I could not take one more minute of the main characters' ideological rants and believe me there were a lot of them. There was a small amount of horror that kept you hoping for more. When dealing with God and the devil, the last thing you need is the soul searching and self questioning jargon from a weak minded main character. I repeat, eh.
